Agree with this. If (when) we are told Manu is leaving, I can see the club countering it in the few days after with a big signing and/or contract extensions for Whiting and Sharp.

This one from a friend of my wife, £200,000 for Ben Jones Bishop for 2013.

At least a change from talking about Manu.

Why would BJB come to Hull when he's a first choice winger at Leeds?

No chance in BJB coming, although I will be happy to eat my words if he does come.

If we want a young English centre who isn't Arundel. I could see us making a move for Matty Blythe.

Where were they talking. In the pub it appears.

Give £200K to Leeds? I dont think so

BJB is a full back playing on the wing. Would be a great replacement for McKinnon. Still very much doubt the deal mind.

Yes I know but I don't see why he would come here apart from that he's so eager to get the 1 jersey that he's willing to leave Leeds. Apart from that I reckon he'll stay as a winger for the rest of his career or within the next couple of years he will replace Webb as Leeds first choice fullback.

If we are chucking 200K about it wants to be a better player than BJB and preferably a halfback.

The same can be said when we signed westerman.

Not really Westerman was a lot higher profile IMO.

Also it wasn't 200K.
